Back to all publications

Publication date:February 11, 2014

By publishing the Brokerage model for Network & Information Security (NIS) in Education report, we aim to provide content and promote digital education on network and information security at all levels. The target group is composed of educators such as trainers, teachers and peers involved in formal education and non-formal education, including lifelong learning.In our current brokerage effort we try to connect the nodes in the best way possible by presenting three case studies with countries perspective, from the Czech Safer Internet Centre (NCBI), ‘Strategy of community education in project — Prague safe online’, from German partners, the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI), ‘10th anniversary of the Safer Internet Day provides an opportunity to increase awareness’, and from Norwegian partners, ‘Norwegian Centre for Information Security’. Furthermore we open a discussion about hacking. ‘Hacking for good or for bad’ is a case study to advance the use of appropriate terms by the NIS in Education community, taking into account the particularity of the given ecosystem. In order to raise awareness of our target group we share the view that everybody should take part in the discussion and share the responsibility of a secure global digital community.
